IBM eNetwork Wireless Gateway is a client/server middleware (1996 circa) product that provides mobile users with access to existing IP-based applications over wireless and dial-up networks, without complex reprogramming. eNetwork Wireless Gateway and Mobile Client provide TCP/IP communications over wireless dial-up networks and performance-enhancing applications.  We expect IBM's Web Sphere Application Server to supercede this product.

Features: 

• Significantly improves wireless network performance while reducing costs
• Integrates diverse wireless networks under a single industry-standard interface: TCP/IP
• Extends enterprise-level security with authentication and encryption
• Enables old 3270 and 5250 applications for wireless
